Hardcore History Ep68 - (BLITZ) Human Resources
Вставка
- Опубліковано 6 бер 2022
- The Atlantic Slave Trade mixes centuries of human bondage with violence, economics, commerce, geo-political competition, liberty, morality, injustice, revolution, tragedy and bloody reckonings. That sounds like a lot, yet this show merely scratches the surface of this enormous subject.

You have to love it when a BLITZ edition is over 5 and a half hours long.
Well, he had to trim it down for us laymen.
🥱
Madness I tell you... Madness!
Imagine if he did the Russian version of a Blitz. The episode would be 50 hours long!
Just saw the title and yelled out 5 hours! Proceeded by a throat sucking noise.
Anyone else get that feeling like a little kid on Christmas when you see there's a new Hardcore History episode?
💯
Precisely! 👍
Yeah, it has essentially become a holiday in my house, haha. Hard to plan around but oh, is it a big deal when it gets here. Happy day, everyone!
Once he dropped one on my birthday after months of no episodes (one of the king of kings series). One of the best birthday present ever! 😂
All i want for christmas is 5 hours of racewar
Dan, you should seriously consider doing a deep dive on piracy. That'd be kinda cool.
Piracy has been different things in different eras. The 16th-18th century era was about competing empires and the british/dutch/french trying to piggy-back on the empires of spain/portugal. Roman-era mediterranean piracy was mostly about "mauroons" and refuges of runaway slaves or other holdouts from roman imperialism.
Or espionage throughout history
At least on Black Beard.
@@StubbsMillingCo. Blackbeard sucks. François l'Olonnais was 1,000 times more badass.
Agreed this is a good idea
*This one episode did a better job at teaching me about slavery than 12 years of public school could ever dream.*
That’s because our education system is based on the Prussian model for brainwashing soldiers.
@@RR-fg7nu that's a reach, but yeah elementary school is more so designed to break you than enlighten
12 Years a Student
AP American and European history covers all of this stuff pretty well.
@@lbboardingb3356 school is only there to keep you from taking your parents job.
Thank you, Dan, for doing an episode like this and giving it the incredible attention it deserves. As a black man, this shit is always brutal to hear or see reenacted but every race on this earth has been a slave to another at some point in history. Knowing the truth of the past is our best chance against repeating it. On another note... LET'S GET THAT 25TH DYNASTY OF EGYPT EPISODE GOING!
What I got from this episode is that regardless of race, gender, color, and religion, Humans are a cancer in this planet.

It's a brave man that tackles this topic in today's social media climate. Respect!
And well done, too.
This was amazing
I think he avoids politics in part so that he can do things like this
@@michaelpowell-ngatchou6274 I'm sorry but this episode is political - but that's okay, he's covering a topic that's still relevant today.
@@panta_rhei.26 if you think this episode is political that reveals something unpleasant about you.
This was incredible. It's on par with Supernova in the East. Accurate, fair and fascinating. As an African American obsessed with history. I've listened to this 4 times already. He really outdid himself this time
@@user-mm8vw1ow1x i feel it
African American. Lol. You segregate yourself. Congratulations.
@@ameliaward7429 are you brain damage
@@ameliaward7429 Italian American here. Nothing wrong with stating your background. Especially when the history discussed here is basically the reason you were born. It's not like we're talking about cotton candy production and he felt the need to state he's an African American with a sweet tooth.
@@ameliaward7429 get over yourself
Just finished "Supernova" a few weeks ago, and just like a gift from the gods, Dan delivers another Blitz not a month later.
Blueprints for Armageddon is probably my favorite thing he's released. Definitely check that out if you haven't
@@variancewithin Thanks for the recommend, but I'm already pretty well acquainted with Dan's work😁 Blueprint for Armageddon is 100% my favorite HCH too, it's just fantastic.
@@variancewithin Blueprint for Armageddon genuinely changed my entire understanding of the world. That and Scars of the Great War.
I've been listening to Supernova in the East since the first episode dropped. It made my day when episode 6 was released, I went on a 3 hour bike ride listening to it.
@@variancewithin I enjoye Blueprint For Armageddon immensly I learned a lot from it.
Being a 35 year old African American with no knowledge of my family past my grandfather. Thank u for this history lesson. I never knew. School don’t teach this at all smh
School doesn't teach a lot of things...35 years without being curious enough to find out for yourself is shocking
Dan, thank you and your team for making these. They are appreciated.
Dan you never had anything to worry about touching this topic. You are a masterful podcaster and I know you like to say you arent a historian but I think you are even better. You are a giver of priceless knowledge and insight. Historian label need not be applied. What you do is even better. Amazing stuff. Thank you so much for all of your hard work it definitely shows!
well said!
I would not survive my job without Dan Carlin love this dude.
Yea thanks samsung for the buds headphones with my sweater on lol
Love you Dan. This was a special episode for me being a Haitian descendant. Thank you so much for everything you do.
As a Haitian man myself I am sad/proud to have this kind of history (as painful as it is) and the hope of a path for equality.
@Unholy69original It's been 150+ years and Haiti is still a corrupt shithole
Nothing on the internet gets me hyped quite like a Dan Carlin upload.
The epitome of quality over quantity
Same, until I saw the subject, and now I don't give a single solitary fuck and will never watch it
@@MightyMerlin1 No one cares.
@@MightyMerlin1 Why..? What are you afraid of? Learning the in-depth history of a subject that effects us all, even to this day?
when dan drops a HH episode it's the same feeling you get when one of your favourite bands releases an album, the only difference is dan never ever disappoints
And it's 4 times longer than any album.
Man, the story of Supernova in the East was some harrowing stuff, i wonder if Dan's next piece will be something a little less graphic.
*Uploads 5 and a half hour treatise on Slavery*
O man! I'd read a lot about the Pacific war before but that series really brings the events to life.
I like the quote at the end after the description of the horror on the ground following the bombing of Hiroshima where he said "this is a vision of a future to avoid".
@@arontesfay2520 Tell the leaders of the US and Russia that.
I agree, I still have not finished the last episode, had to keep turning it off 😔
@Black Lesbian Poet The mysterious “they” is at it again, huh?
@Black Lesbian Poet How do you know the Freemasons aren’t the “good guys”?
Very simply, you don’t know. I do however expect you are capable of some pretty extreme mental contortions in an attempt to offer “evidence” as proof you are absolutely correct.
You want there to be some group with a plan out there pulling strings because you want the chaos of humanity and life to have order and follow a plan.
In addition, I suspect you have certain personality traits that lead you to believe you are one of the “special people” who can “see the truth”.
There are other people who claim it’s Jews, aliens, the Illuminati, the Catholic Church, Democrats, Republicans, communists, socialist or any number of groups that are “in charge”. Your particular boogeyman seems to be the Freemasons.
I’ll welcome your response where you claim I’m a “sheep”, stupid, ignorant, uneducated or am “indoctrinated” as you ask me to “do my own research”.
This man can do an in-depth episode on whatever and I'll still listen. The way he makes history so exciting and visual is truly incredible.
I'm Haitian, thank you for teaching me about this ☝🏿💯
Benjamin Lay is my favorite 18th century abolitionist. He stood outside a church barefoot in the winter and when people showed concern that he could get sick, he shouted, "You're worried about me when you make your slaves toil year-round in tattered rags?"
Most people hid their faces and shuffled inside.
If anyone wants to know more about the saga that was the Haitian Revolution, there's a podcast called "Revolutions" that does a deep dive into the happenings.
This was an EXCELLENT narrative Dan. Once again you've crafted a masterpiece. Thank you for your work
Love the revolutions podcast.
@@JackAubreyy pretty bad, having a dictator doesn't work out
@@JackAubreyy what's the problem?
@@JackAubreyy so I don't get you? You were asking a question you knew the answer to?
Or are you just some instigator who's angry your ancestors got their asses handed to them by 'inferior people?
@@waynewayne8419 He's just racist. No winning any arguments with people like him
Oh man, new HH always makes me feel like a kid on Christmas morning.
HH Brother
Goddamn, I've been writing on this topic for 7 years and this man so succinctly distills and explains so much of it in 6 hours. His genius is giving me an existential crisis rn.
I would like to read your work! How do I find it?
Feels bad
I believe he has a history degree, and of course he is American so this is a subject that he has probably been interested/educated on since his early 20s I would imagine. Many of the sources he uses may very well be from textbooks from his university days that he still owns.
This is so far the best podcast I've ever heard. I Iistened to it with several pauses over a couple of days, due to shortage of time, but it proved to be even better and more fruitful because I was always very focused and could digest it even better and remember it properly. It was so great, so deep, profound, tragic and well presented, that at the end of it, I've learned so much that I felt like I lived one more life over those few days. I won't look at the world the same way anymore.
You sir are a God damn national treasure and should be protected at all costs. As man of minor education yet unimaginable curiosity these talks, long form speeches on what is to be said history are fascinating to me. The depths to which you dive and research that you must do is and gas to be insanely intense. On behalf of all those who are too bust or lazy to do the research ourselves id like to thank you and anyone who works with you for all the hard work you do to produce these podcasts. They make my day or week when they come out. Its a great getaway to put my mind and life on hold for a while and get lost in the minds and actions of others.
You are one of the only people I would trust to cover this topic in an open and responsible way, and I wasn't disappointed 💖
Was listening to the destroyer of worlds at work and this reminded me of the first 15 seconds of it when you told your friend it was a 6 hour long show you wanted to classify as a blitz edition and he said don't take this the wrong way but im not sure you know the meaning of the word. Love your work man.
Another full free audiobook from the greatest to ever do it. Thank you, Dan.
Also, I feel like this would be in the restricted section of the library at Hogwarts…
So true
@@reconstructionmanifest7349 To both points
Give him the dollar he asks for! Nothing is free.
When the audio was over I was shocked that 5 hours had passed. You really have a gift and all the hard work by you and your team is appreciated.
Dan is my friend , he may not know it but he is 🤣. I was so happy when I saw this uploaded on my way to work . Made my day . I will listen to this many time over because with Hardcore History its never just one listen.
Never just one listen.
King of Kings, and the WW1 series are my favorites . Listened numerous times .
Redefining "Blitz" one 6 hour episode at a time. Godspeed Dan!
Ooof this was a tough one . Such barbarism . Thank you Dan and team . 🙏🏻
This episode made me feel the horror and suffering of slavery in a way that history class never did. I'm older now, but I think it was the simple details. When I heard that a hole was dug in order to beat a pregnant woman and that the violence of the beating induced labor, I started sobbing.
That was such a crazy story
After hours and hours and hours on this podcast and all the others of Dan Carlin on youtube I only wish there were more hours and hours and hours. I love this podcast.
Glad Dan had the balls to do this one
Can't let leftist cancer silence the smart ones!
@@chrisg4305 I mean, the entire episode is condemning slavery. That’s pretty leftist.
@@Sean-no3zv I feel like condemning and explaining slavery isn't a left right issue...
Yeah dude being anti slavery takes SO much bravery
@@Sean-no3zv democracrats we’re slave owners.
King of kings. Incredible how much more "hardcore" you can extract when you begin listening again, but from random time points along the episode. Loved the deep dive into the horrifying slave ships as Dan has the unique ability to make you FEEL like you are there with slaves, sweating, chained and gasping for air. Amazing how Dan makes audio transform into sensual experience.
Omg I almost convulsed when I got the noti! Love you Dan, legit got me hooked on history and now am fiend.
I also came
I love that you do any topic you feel like. You are a man that follows his own path and sheds insight on things little have thought about in the modern world. Good job Dan, your work has value.
Got this one uploaded just when I was starting my shift at work, perfect timing. Thanks Dan, almost finished, great as always.
This episode alone deserves a spot in every middle school's history class. A tour of college campuses etc.
will be offering this episode to my students as an alternative assignment, great stuff!!!!
Thank you Dan for doing this episode. I miss the good ol' 5+ hour episodes.
It’s like Christmas every time a new episode comes out. Love you Dan
This is so very good Dan, let all Americans hear this.
Thank you for your work.
Another wonderful podcast! Much thanks to Dan & the entire team ♥
Dan never disappoints. Yet another great show full of thought provoking things and terrifying human nature. Love it.
Am I crazy.....or does the narrative suggest a closet psychopath. He's fascinated by human cruelty and trafficking? Typical considering most exceptionally intelligent people are profoundly apathetic
@@promethiusbobb3309 It's fascinating in the sense that it actually happened and how it reverberates across time. Not every topic is sunshine and rainbows man sometimes the topic is ugly but that doesn't make it any less layered.
This is always hands down my favorite podcast out there
The best educator on the planet... I get so much teaching information from Dan...Guns n Horses, Wrath of the Khans, Ghosts of the Ostfront...and now this... a true blessing a so very much appreciated
I can't wait till the day Dan covers Napoleon. This however was outstanding 👌
At 4:50 this really hit home. I'm a 28 year old Commander as well, certainly not of 6,000 troops but a few hundred and it is absolutely fascinating when you can think about the decisions these people had to make on both sides
Would you ever consider doing a patron, where donaters gain access to the long sections you cut? I'm fascinated with what ends up on the cutting room floor.
Please!!!!!
He has one. dancarlin
@@thial2009 but does he release these cuts and Edits?
Yea I’d totally listen to that.
Greatly appreciated 😊 thanks a lot for all involved.
this is way deeper and so much more nuanced than i would have come to expect from a youtube history channel. this like top tier graduate level academic analysis. seriously great stuff
the man has the voracious appetite to do what a master's in history candidate would be doing to get their degree - and he does it over and over. Could potentially have several doctorates at this point.
Dan I friggin love you. Please do a series on William the Conquerer and the Normans!
I've shed many tears while listening to Dan's stuff, but never more than this. Its fascinating, horrifying, and maybe scaring. Most definitely a must as a student of our human history.
This is absolutely amazing. I know it’s not in the scope of this podcast but perhaps a part 2 of this could cover piracy and the terror it caused in coastal populations of the Mediterranean. Dragut is a long forgotten name.
Dan, you’ve outdone yourself once again. Thank you sincerely, my friend. ✌🏻
Man it’s such a good feeling to hop on UA-cam and see a new episode of Hardcore History. Literally made my day.
Thank you Dan, you've made my week
This going to be putting me to sleep for weeks ahead! Thanks for another 5hr podcast!
What a superb lesson. It has tied so much more together.
Glad I found this guy!
I was hoping for the Alexander episode but this one will do, thanks for all the hard work
Dan you need to make posters or art we can buy from the covers of Supernova in the east. I would 100% buy them
Same
This one is magnificent!
Much love dan and co. you have the best podcast i know of, and the only podcast i will spend money on. cant wait for your next one.
I was absolutely blown away when he said his episodes aren't scripted but rather he prepares and then just goes for it. Remarkable.
Remarkable intelligence
Thank you Dan. My day is made.
The artwork for this one is awesome!
I've been listening to you for 7 years now and I'm glad you're out there doing what you do.
This guy is an absolute legend.
The discussion and candidness is very relaxing even when contemplating such a dark, but significant concept. We live a better life than in all of human history but still miserable in our labour. I work in a freezer for 12 hour stretches…but can still indulge in Hardcore History while i do so. At times i feel like i am in a state of bondage…lol. Dan Carlin helped me Supernova.
Now I've got something to listen to on my next road trip!
Can't afford to fall asleep listening to this so I am walking to work for the next few days. Excellent so far. Thanks Dan.
Awww! That's praise indeed!🙂
When I listen to these podcasts, i listen to each hour of the podcast a minimal of 3 times before moving onto the next hour in order to grasp all these ideas and concepts. My mind is like 🤯
Would love to hear a BLITZ on the area between the Black and Caspian seas, from ancient to modern times.
Dan Carlin keep it up, you got me into history thank you 👍
Dan today is my birthday and I feel personally honored. So excited to listen
Bravo, Dan...thanks for another fantastic program!
I’m celebrating Juneteenth by informing myself. Thanks for tackling this complicated subject.
I'm still holding out for a multi episode show on the thirty years war. Lots of interesting stuff there.
Thank you Dan and team.
OMG Finally Thank you Dan we love you!!!!!! I have been waiting so patiently and re watching alllllll your old stuff while waiting we support you tons! Keep on taking as much time as you need!!!!! Steller like you always are!
Fascinating, educational, detailed and horrifying as always. 😎
YT showed me this video 6 days after it came out, I'm subscribed and selected the notification bell. YT how dare you not show me Dan's videos asap.
Perfect timing, this should get me through most of a 8 hour drive I'll be doing this weekend!
Always amazing. The master of historical thesis!
I wanted to say thank you Dan, I needed a new HH. But then I saw the topic - oh boy, this is not gonna be pleasent...
Dan: I have no script I’m just spit balling
*5 1/2 hours later*
A lot of new concepts for me to read up on. Reminded me of something I said to one of my friends after watching the last Pirates of the Caribean movie, "Spain is the most underwhelming empire." All that quick wealth and power, only to destabilize their own economy thanks to the massive amounts of gold and silver suddenly injected in. This podcast is awesome. It touches so many subjects and eras that I barely even know where to start.
Discovered a love of history because of Dan as well! Thank you!!
Same
This is a great episode and I'd love to hear another on the decline and abolition of slavery, particularly with regards to Britain's leading the way to end the Atlantic slave trade.
One correction though: Desaline (I don't know how it's spelled) genocided all French whites, not all whites. There were, famously, Polish conscripts sent to Saint Dominge by Napoleon who switched sides and fought under the command of Desaline and others like him. They weren't touched in the genocide, their descendants are still in Haiti. Other non-French whites were also left alone. That said, those enacting the genocide on the ground weren't always so discerning in who they targeted.
England found it easier to have peasants than slaves; there was little "leading the way" to it.
@@solgato5186
That's plain wrong. Britain blockaded West Africa to prevent the export of slaves oversees and basically bribed, cajoled, and bullied the rest of Europe into helping them.
@@5h0rgunn45Quakers (fleeing persecution from England!) in the Colonies were the first to denounce slavery. In fact, some U.S. regions/states altogether banned/outlawed slavery from their start. About twenty five before “England” even considered abolishment. The more one knows…
@@5h0rgunn45 Britain blockaded the West African coast because Portugal got too powerful. It had nothing to do with them being morally superior
@@herbthompson8937
So you say. Whatever the motivation for doing it and regardless of whatever other terrible things the British Empire did, the fact remains they led the way in ending the Atlantic slave trade.
Yes!!! Just got the notification ❤
Keep doing what you do man... you are making the world a better place by doing an an incredible job of making history interesting while also being as objective as possible.
seeing these show up in my feed quite literally makes my week
New Hardcore History? Hell yeah
I wish US school taught about slavery in this way. I had never heard about the details of the slave rebellions in the Caribbean. Unfortunately, a lot of the details about slavery are passed over in favor of the bigger picture so that a week can be dedicated to the US history after WWII. Teachers, in my opinion, should integrate Hardcore history into the curriculum
@darknightoftroy thank you I will
Teachers don’t choose the curriculum
It is really weird how differently history is taught from place to place. There was weeks every year in my school where we were taught about slavery. That being said you are absolutely correct about using hch in history class, it's educational and extremely entertaining
@@thebrospaul2312 Don't get me wrong, my schools spent a couple of weeks on the topic or era of American slavery but it was mostly centered around the triangular trade, cash crops, cotton gin, 3/5 clause, and Missouri compromise. I appreciate hch because Carlin makes better use of 1st hand accounts and stories to get a better sense of the personal affects of these events
@@fmifu4100 I wasn't judging anyone, or trying to say anything negative. I just find it curious that different schools teach different things on the same subject.
Brilliantly conveyed conceptualisation of the time..! It’s so refreshing to hear such an insightful ‘on the fence overview so beautifully, brutally captured. Thank you for your time and insight on such a contentious subject ❤
Great job Dan. This should be required listening.
I started this episode on the podcast feed earlier today. I love your nuanced approach. This subject seems to get painted with an ever narrowing brush these days. It’s nice to hear a balanced approach that isn’t “white man bad” vs slavery apologists. If you make everyone a bit aggravated at something you say and also have everyone find something they agree with you’re probably on the right track.
Separating out the transatlantic slave trade from the history of slavery in general
will create a political view.
It is like discussing the war in Ukraine right now. Many people have said Ukraine is
at fault unaware of the wars and incidents that proceeded the current conflict.
@@billybatts9491 actually we're all here because we love history, you can ignore it if you want to but it's not winning you any points from people who seek to actually know things, History is about causation, things don't happen out of the blue except for meteor strikes.
This is great, my family were slaves in Alabama. This hits hard
This is going to be fantastic. Thanks for all your hard work Dan!!
Thanks for everything you do Dan
